When TV Goes Horribly Wrong

From technical trouble, jaw-droppingly inappropriate behaviour, fist fights, to collapsing sets these are the moments that left live TV producers red-faced and viewers open-mouthed.

Expect the unexpected, as the people who were there recall live TV's ickiest moments including live bloopers from the world of sport, a mind-blowing earthquake on Italian TV, a Greek news presenter who was attacked mid-broadcast and the unfortunately-named Indian MP, Poonam Madam, who falls into a sewer in the middle of a TV interview.
